Growth rates and the end of your picnic.

This is a lecture by Dr. Albert A. Bartlett titled Arithmatic, Population, and Energy

It is not exciting. It is not short. It is not that fun.

It is one of the most informative if not THE most informative lectures I have ever heard, in terms of it's value for my understanding of current events.

This is basic to the people with power, but many of you will find it to be shocking and near unbelievable.

Basically everything we think of as Good, Helpful, Beneficial.. are actually the causes of our greatest problems with us now and on the horizon.

I came to this site and did a search hoping to find some chatter about this. I was amazed that no one at all replied to this post. They say that numbers can't be denied and, if so everyone is wasting their time talking about oil. Scary stuff.
